Recommended Form Routing

Message authors determine the Handling, To Location, and To ICS Position for their messages. Use the values on this page when the message author hasn’t provided any, or wants recommendations. Where more than one value is listed, use the first value that is known to be open / staffed. During exercises and drills, the exercise instructions take precedence over these recommendations.
